Jugo, Karin, and Aika all stood off to the side as Suigetsu and Kisame were engaged in a fight. Suigetsu wants Kisame's sword so now they're battling.

"You don't seem very concerned about your partner" Karin comments looking at the fellow redhead standing next to her

Aika shrugs "After today I'm not sure what I'm going to do anyway.. the only reason I came to the Akatsuki was to become stronger.. and now I am"

"hm" Karin stares at her "you look familiar.."

"Familiar.. oh have you seen a hyperactive blonde haired boy with whisker like marks on his cheeks like mine?" Aika questions

"yeah" Karin replies "why?"

"He's my twin brother" Aika looks ahead

"What?!" Karin shouts "the blonde idiot chasing Sasuke is your twin brother"

"that's right" Aika answers calmly

"...what a small world" Karin comments before going quiet

Aika looks up at the sky that was slowing being covered by dark clouds.

"even the heavens know it's going to be a sad day" Aika mutters

Seconds turned into minutes, minutes turned into hours, and everyone was growing impatiently worried. Aika looked towards the Uchiha Hideout and thought of how harsh the first day of training with Itachi was.

"Ah!" Aika was thrown back onto the ground

Aika flinches back as a sword stopped right in front of her face. She looked up at the sharingan eyes that stared at her.

"Dead" Itachi spoke

"AH" Aika yells in frustration "Again!"

Several more times Aika and Itachi fight, ending with Aika collapsing to the ground every time.

"Dead" Itachi says once again

"Ugh!" Aika shouts as her eyes glow blue with 2 black feathers, her fenikkusu

Aika stands up and blasts fire at him, Itachi easily side steps away from it.

"You're loosing your temper" Itachi says

"I'm sick of loosing!" Aika shouts standing up

"Losing your temper isn't going to fix anything" Itachi deactivates his sharingan

"I don't care!" Aika lunges at him

Itachi kicks her in the stomach and elbows her in the back of the neck. Aika coughs blood and falls to her knees.

"Losing your temper results in giving yourself an opening and will lead to your death" Itachi walks away

Aika looks up at him with silence.

"Always remember lesson one" Itachi faces her "if you lose your mind, then you will lose your life, always remain calm and believe in yourself. That is the key to controlling your fire."

Aika is snapped from her memory as the Uchiha Hideout gets completely destroyed.

"Itachi! Sasuke!" Aika quickly runs to the hideout

Aika enters the ruble to see both Uchiha's on the ground. She slowly walks over and checks Sasuke for a pulse, he was only unconscious. Aika crawls over to Itachi and stares into his eyes. His eyes were grey and he still had a smile on his face, even in death.

"Hey Itachi.." Aika smiles sadly as she closes his eyes "are you smiling.." a tear goes down her face "because you've finally completed your mission"

Aika wipes her tears as she hears a voice behind her.

"well well well"

Aika quickly turns around and sees Tobi

"Tobi.." Aika stands up

"I'm sure the past couple months has been quite a shock to you little one" Tobi says in a deeper tone then usual

Aika takes a step back

"Don't worry, I've only come here to bring them back to base" Tobi picks up Itachi's body "would you so kindly bring Sasuke, or is he too heavy?"

"No.." Aika walks over and picks up Sasuke, putting him over her shoulder

"Let's go" Toby jumps away

"right.." Aika looks around before following him
